    car does not start anymore

    That sounds horrible. Check your starter, check your battery. But the easiest thing you can do right now is twist your oil cap off and look at the cam while someone else cranks the motor. If your alternator/power steering belts are turning, but the cam inside your valve cover isn't then your...

    TRANS GRINDS when putting in gear! Please Help

    Keep it simple to start with, as stated above, could still be air in the system. And if you don't know when the last time your trans fluid was changed, it would be a good idea. BG syncroshift fixes my transmission when this starts happening. I noticed that it would start happening when my...

    Car sits for 6 mo after head gasket blown is it OK?

    The materials bearings are made of generally don't rust that easy, but it depends on how long and how bad the head gasket was blown before they stopped driving it. I would be more worried about the cylinder walls and rings. I've seen cars with blown head gaskets sit and have no problems with...

    Car shakes Violently. Need help.

    does the shaking get harder with more brake pedal pressure, you may have warped or cracked rotors. If the shaking is very prominent in the steering wheel its very likely you have bad front rotors or out of balance tires. If its worse through the chassis, or the seat, its probably something else.

    2G Drivers Side Door Wont Open

    What kind of tool are you using to get at it, a socket and wratchet or a wrench? The way it's designed to come apart is to take the window and track out then you can get straight to the bolt with socket and extension. But thats if you're brave enough to pull the window out. If you follow the...

    EVO III o2 housing and downpipe

    It should bolt up fine, the only difference in the o2 housing is the angle the outlet is at, its off by a couple of degrees. It's so small though that it shouldn't make a difference. I have the E3 housing and VRS 3 inch, it just comes really close to my transfer case. There is less than a 1/2...

    Smoke From Dash!!!!!

    the temp sensor is basically just a resistor that reacts to temperature, it can hook up either way. You must have created a short somewhere. Double check any wiring you touched...wait, the female spade connectors at the temp sensor aren't by any chance resting on each other just the slightest...

    help with purchase - 2.0 vs 2.0 turbo

    Because its more fun that way, and you'll learn a lot more. Plus you'll have better knowledge as to whats in your car.By the way, the oil squirters are negligable items. There are plenty of 2g blocks running around with out them because some say they are the cause of the dreaded crankwalk...

    Coolant Additives??

    Any old car that gets its system flushed and runs straight water is going to run cooler. But that being said, I too have heard good stuff about Water Wetter. I tried it once long ago, but it didn't make enough of a difference for me. I've tried the problend too, it made almost no difference...

    Odd AWD Drivetrain Situation

    Maybe Spln_hrd said it better

    Odd AWD Drivetrain Situation

    due to the fact that your front wheels are connected directly to an open diff in the transaxle, your transfer case and rear wheels are not going to turn, the open diff basically turns around inside the gear that turns the shaft for your transaxle. but your rear wheels are LSD, so they turn the...

    AC Compressor

    If its a 93-94 1g I can't say for sure but would guess yes, if its a 92 or earlier its a r12 compressor and the fittings will be different.

    Balance Shaft Timing

    Did you turn the crank 2 full revolutions then double check all the timing marks after the initial alignment?
